Abstract

Yucatán state’s homicide level has remained low and steady for decades and criminal violence activity is low, even while crime rates in much of the rest of the country have increased since 2006. In this research note, we examine five main theoretical explanations for Yucatán's relative containment of violence: criminal competition, protection networks and party alternation, vertical partisan fragmentation, interagency coordination, and social cohesion among the Indigenous population. We find that in Yucatán, interagency coordination is a key explanatory variable, along with cooperation around security between Partido Revolucionario Institucional and Partido Acción Nacional governments and among federal and state authorities.
Yucatán是墨西哥犯罪暴力上升的例外
尤卡坦州的凶杀案水平几十年来一直保持在较低水平,犯罪暴力活动也很低,尽管自2006年以来,该国其他大部分地区的犯罪率都有所上升。在本研究报告中,我们考察了尤卡坦相对遏制暴力的五种主要理论解释:犯罪竞争、保护网络和政党交替、纵向党派分裂、机构间协调和土著人口的社会凝聚力。我们发现,在尤卡坦,机构间协调是一个关键的解释变量,革命党和民族党政府之间以及联邦和州当局之间围绕安全的合作也是如此。
